    No doubt. Classic rock = planar Jazz = Clears

    Focal Clear headphones

    Anyone toggle back and forth with a planar headphone? Last night I dug up my old hifiman he 400. The overall warmth was a lot of fun. Makes me wonder if the crystal clear headphones are a little over rated.

    Focal Utopia General Discussion

    True at times the subwoofer amp buzz in the air at live concerts is missed within headphones

    Focal Clear headphones

    Yes , I agree somewhat. Clears great but the overal fun warmth sound is a little thin. I would love to try the hex v2 as I’m a big hifiman fan.

    Focal Utopia General Discussion

    People that spend large sums of cash on headphone equipment are always chasing the “ receiver amp floor speaker quality sound”. Unfortunately this level of sound is not achievable with a speaker 1” away from the ear.

    That’s going to take some work. These things are quite amazing.

    Focal Clear headphones

    Put the Clears down for a couple days, been listening to my receiver and floor speakers. Headphones are great but if you really want great sound. Floor speakers it up!

    Sennheiser HD820

    You’ll know. Smaller sound stage brings the instrument together. The instruments will be less separated.

    Sennheiser HD820

    It’s all about the bass I believe for many it will boil down to.. does it have more bass at the sacrifice of the large sound stage.

    Sennheiser HD820

    Sorry if this is a repeat. Do we know if the 820 will pump up the bass compared to the 800S. I enjoyed my 800S but with certain genres. The bass was underwhelming for my taiste.

    Sennheiser HD800S Unveiled!

    Anyone know the difference between the 800S and Focal Clear? I have the Clears and at times wish the stage was larger.
  18. Ekul61

    Focal Clear headphones

    Yes I agree small sound stage. Sometimes I wish I still owned the 800S so I could get the clean instrument separation ,large stage.

    Focal Clear headphones

    They are all good. Just seams when u get into the ultra detailing headphone. They have to sacrifice a little bass to achieve the clarity.
  20. Ekul61

    Focal Clear headphones

    Yes it’s well known. Except within the Utopia thread. The Utopia, much more clear and detailed. The Clears, a little easier on the ears and the bass just sounds a little better.

    Focal Clear headphones

    Sounds like u have a nice set up. But with a balanced cable and a Violectric 280. The Clear bass is more enjoyable and real to life than the 800S and Utopias.

    Focal Clear headphones

    Certainly a debatable thought. I’m not sure many that have listened to both would agree with you. Ask Tyll from Inner Fidelity.

    Cheap laptop for music server

    Been there. The problem is the small 13” are expensive. Usually the deals are on “15. U might find something for 400. The 500 solid state seem to be more popular. At 300 it’s a slow processor. With minimal storage.

    Focal Clear headphones

    If you adjust the powerful v281 settings to -6 and use the balanced cable. It’s quite good.

    Focal Clear headphones

    Not so sure. Bass is pretty good within the Clears. I’d hate to loose detail. Would luv to try one
